One-minute poster session: All participants were invited to present a poster concerning their research. Every presenter of a poster received a one-minute slot in the conference programme (in a plenary session) to attract the attention to his or her poster. See the PDF files the one-minute session.

The following posters were rated the best by a jury consisting of the keynote speakers under the leadingship of Kees Vuik:

  Joris Degroote Tinne Haentjens    Aram Markosyan
1. Joris Degroote (Ugent)
Partitioned solution of the unsteady adjoint equations for a 1D fluid-structure interaction problem
 2. Tinne Haentjens (UA)
ADI schemes for the numerical solution of the Heston-Hull-White PDE
 3. Aram Markosyan (CWI)
Why do we need high order fluid model for streamers?

Support: The Conferences of the Dutch-Flemish Numerical Analysis Communities are held yearly, organised by the Werkgemeenschap Scientific Computing (WSC). Support is provided by the Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI). Financial support for this conference is provided by the 3TU Applied Mathematics Institute (3TU.AMI), the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO), the Research Foundation Flanders (FWO-Vlaanderen), and Nonlinear Dynamics of Natural Systems(NDNS+).
